Great news HBase team, well done. I have worked with HBase for many years and I think it is a great product. it does what it says on the tin so to speak.
Ironically if you look around the NoSQL competitors, most of them are supported by start-ups, whereas HBase is only supported as part of Apache suite of products by vendors like Cloudera and others. Moreover, Google Cloud BigTable (proprietary) now has a seamless API to Apache HBase. For those who would prefer to use SQL on top, there is Apache Phoenix around which makes life easier for most SQL savvy people to work on HBase. Problem solved For TCO, HBase is still value for money compared to others. You do not need expensive RAM or SSD with Hbase. That makes it easy to onboard it in no time. Also Hbase can be used in a variety of different business applications, whereas other commercial ones are focused on narrower niche markets. I believe HBase is now on its 11th anniversary (the 10th anniversary was May 2020) and hope HBase will go from strength to strength and we will keep using it for years to come with these frequent upgrades. view my Linkedin profile <https://www.linkedin.com/in/mich-talebzadeh-ph-d-5205b2/> *Disclaimer:* Use it at your own risk.
